Oh come on. The Knights of Ren, the Guardians of the Whills, the whole significance of Kyber crystals, a lot of the stuff in the new EU right now about the long-term significance of Jakku, questions concerning what the hell Snoke actually is (admittedly this could turn out lame, but for now I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt for being mysterious), Luke’s quest for the birthplace of the Jedi, the deemphasis of the Sith, these things are all much more mythologically satisfying than anything since Yoda’s speeches about the Force in ESB. Yeah, the first two movies were the best, but the idea that the Disney era films have totally lost sight of this kind of thing that a lot of people are espousing just isn’t true. It’s all miles ahead of the “twenty-five thousand years of Jedi vs. Sith” that it’s replacing.
